    3 Piece Cream Cheese Wontonscheese
    Kristine R.

    Being an LA native, I've been on the hunt for a "ghetto Chinese food" spot. Basically meaning, a place that isn't panda, authentic, greasy, flavorful and big portions... Dragon Express is all that and a bag of chips! The flavors here are so different and delicious! They're so hearty and everything I was looking for! The orange chicken was crunchy and juicy. The beef was even better. Some of the best chewy chow mein noods! The cheese wontons were so fresh and so were the egg rolls. The women there are so sweet. I love the service. They HOOK IT UP! I like how clean it was in there as well. The area isn't the most popular but this is a diamond in the rough and I dream about the day I go back.

    What a busy, fast paced environment! The staff seemed a but inattentive, but they might not me accustomed to the fast pace yet. I believe that Dragon Express blew up because of all the influencers that have been posting on social media. Food was okay, chow mein needed some seasoning in my opinion and was a but salty, bbq pork and orange chicken were both saucy, yet flavorful. Beijing beef had subtle heat, but no crunch, and the honey walnut shrimp were big and juicy, but lacking in flavors of sweetness and I also did not get any Walnuts? Pricing seemed fair until most of the side items are an up-charge. It was a nice pleasant day to check this place out, I left full and satisfied.

    November 5th Visit around 7pm. Yelp Review #39 of 2025 This business was highly recommended to us, based on generous servings and taste. I will say that this is a place that is definitely going to give you a bang for your buck. They do not mess around when it comes to your servings of chow mein, or fried rice. We tried the Mongolian beef, the Beijing beef, sweet-and-sour pork, walnut shrimp, orange chicken, teriyaki chicken, and salted pork chop. Although I don't eat much pork like I used to, I really enjoyed the sweet-and-sour pork and the pork chop. When I arrived, there was maybe six people ahead of me, but it took me nearly 20 minutes just to get to the front of the line, order my food, and then pay. [I passed by this location about a month ago, we decided to walk out because the line was about 45 minutes long.] Overall, it is slightly loud, but it's more because of the amount of people waiting in line and it is people being unruly. We would definitely go back and try this business again. Although we may not do the sweet-and-sour pork as it was too bready, same with the walnut shrimp.

    Checking out the hype that everyone was raging about. I have to say its overrated. Can't believe everything you see on social media. The chowmein was salty, the mushroom chicken was salty, the orange chicken was more batter than chicken. The flavor is there, just too salty for my palate. My favorite would have to be the honey walnut shrimp, but they're stingy on that bc I had to pay extra for that side. Because they just open, I might give them another chance to settle in and improve their routine and recipe.

    today i came into the restaurant as soon as they opened because i heard it gets busy quickly. i ordered a (Plate C) 3 choice proteins of sesame chicken, teriyaki chicken, and beef broccoli with rice and chowmein. my total was $14. the fried sesame chicken had like subtle honey garlic flavor which it not bad i just wish there was some spice and the sauce did make the breading soggy. the teriyaki chicken had good flavor and grilled to perfection i personally don't like the amount of cartilage or bones i kept biting into. no complaints about the beef broccoli and i really like how the broccoli had crunch to it. staff was kind, patient, as worked really fast. i'd came back here to try more items and their desserts

    Went to Dragon Express for the very first time today and boy, I was shocked -- in a good way. It's a corner suite in a strip mall type of location in East Las Vegas. If you're looking for a big sign that says "Dragon Express", you're gonna miss it. Just look for the words "Chinese Fast Food". As you go in, it's like you're transported to a less branded Panda Express. Same lay out and food vessels and all. I went there right before lunch time so it wasn't as crowded as I thought. I was picking up a few plates and as soon as the gentleman plopped the chow mein in the to-go box, my eyes widened due to the sheer amount of food he placed. I even stopped him midway to let him know that I'm getting a combo plate and not just a plate of chow mein. He smiled and said "I know". I felt like such a noob at that point that I apologized to him and told him that it was my first time there. With three combo plates completed and as I head out of the restaurant, I realized the bag felt like it was about 10lbs (it probably was!). Came home and opened the containers and my assumptions were correct. Each plate was about 3lbs of food! Chow mein covered more than half the container, teriyaki chicken filled the rest and then some, then salt and pepper shrimp atop that. Personally, I requested for all veggies instead of the chow mein and fried rice. They had to cook it to order which was nice and much better option if you're trying to cut down on carbs. Overall, this place is great if you have a large family or just really hungry and prefer to spend on low-budget meals. For two entrees with chow mein and fried rice (Plate B) it's only $10.29!! I knocked down 1 star since some of the dishes were a bit oily and some lacking in flavor/salt. It's not a deal breaker, but it didn't wow me enough to give 5 stars. Would definitely go back again!

    Honey Walnut Shrimp
    Brianna M.

    The portions are HUGE. This food was SO yummy. Very flavorful. We loved it! The chowmein was honestly perfect. The orange chicken taste like 'authentic' orange chicken. The teriyaki chicken is so good, a little dry. The sesame chicken was also good, and so was the BBQ pork! I would definitely recommend this place. We were literally in awe at how yummy and affordable this food is.

    Orange Chicken

    If you're looking for Chinese fast food in the eastside of Las Vegas, look no further. Dragon express is the place to get your craving fixed. Plenty of parking, freshly cooked food by Chinese cooks. Their combos come in big portions and I'm not even exaggerating. You get polite service, amazing tasty food and the atmosphere feels welcoming. Might I add, they're not greedy with sauces. lol stop on by and check the place out yourself.

    2 Plate C : (2) Orange Chicken , Teriyaki Chicken , Beef Broccoli , chowmein Noodle , Fried Rice Honey Walnut Shrimp
    Lei G.

    Ordered through Grub Hub, packed nicely and delivered quickly. The plates were both fully packed with generous portions and amazing flavors! The Mongolian beef was smoky and spicy but very flavorful. The honey walnut shrimp and orange chicken was crispy and crunchy. The amazing seasonings of the beef and broccoli paired well with the fried rice and chow mein noodles. The noodles were cooked and I could taste the lack of msg seasonings compared to other similar restaurants. This is definitely our new favorite spot! The churros and sugar donuts are deep fried and melt in your mouth. Thank you for the great service, ambiance and amazing food! And for being so close to our apartment!

    Panda Express can't tough this spot, took my mom here for lunch and we both loved it, huge portions, quality food and lovely people. The honey walnut shrimp was the absolute best and I asked for a bed of broccoli instead of noodles or rice and the vegetables were cooked perfectly with lots of garlic. I will for sure be back

    Orange & Mushroom Chicken- BBQ Pork & Kung Pao Chicken

    I had read about this place on Reddit but we live in Summerlin so it's not like it's close. So a couple of days ago I decided to drive across town and try it out. I got Orange Chicken & Mushroom Chicken in one B combo and BBQ Pork and Kung Pao in another. Both with half and half noodles and fried rice. Holy crap, all 4 were great, huge portions and it was still HOT when I got it home. Super fresh about 2 pm and friendly employees. Also had a really nice conversation with the girl in front of me in line. I'll definitely be back. $27 including rangoons and I've already had 4 meals and have enough for 1 or 2 more and I'm not sick of it yet.

    BBQ Pork, Fried Rice, chow mein, Mongolian Beef
    Irma F.

    Really excited about this place. Great food, even better price. They overfill the container. Definitely good to share. I had half fried rice/half chow mien with pepper shrimp, bbq pork and some steak and potato dish that was sooooo good. No wonder the place with super packed.

What really stood out to me is how much restraint and craftsmanship goes into these desserts. Nothing is overdone, nothing feels gimmicky--it's just clean flavors, airy textures, and a level of detail that shows real skill. In a city full of over-the-top desserts, this place keeps it refined--and that's exactly why it stands out. I'll definitely be back to work my way through the entire case.

Anytime I have friends or family visiting from out of town that are huge Matcha lovers I bring them here! They have plenty of seating, pretty nice size tables ranging from smaller squares, to larger circle tables to pretty good size community tables. Very clean, minimalistic, open space. It's a great place to hangout, it can get pretty busy sometimes. And that parking lot in general... sometimes I've gone there and had a hard time finding parking (I've actually left out of frustration before) it really just depends when you go. You do have a lot of really well-known local places in that shopping center that get incredibly busy especially late afternoon/early evenings on weekends from my experience. Haven't really had a problem when I've gone on a weekday. They have a really awesome menu! If you're not a Matcha person... but you're going with a matcha person.. they do have some coffee drinks as well! They have egg salad sandwiches and tuna sandwiches, and a few different desserts including layered crêpe cakes. My favorite thing to get there is their Matcha float latte, it's kind of the best of both worlds where you get your Matcha latte and a Matcha soft serve all in one! There are so many different combinations that you can get there of different types of green teas, either in tea form, latte, floats, parfait, and so many different flavors and toppings like they have their banana Matcha latte, which is really good!! They have quite a few flavors of soft serve (and don't worry for the ones that don't like Matcha, but are going with a Matcha person they have ones like black sesame, Ube, vanilla, etc. I miss their lychee flavor... I believe it was a limited time flavor, and I absolutely loved that soft serve... please bring it back!) and they're absolutely perfect, the texture and consistency of their soft serve is great. Tonight I got their Matcha and vanilla swirl soft serve on a waffle cone with chocolate syrup. (I had a birthday reward, They have a really awesome rewards program!) and it brought me joy in a way that I can't even put words and it was the perfect after dinner dessert and a great way to end the evening! It's an awesome place if in the middle of the day you need your Matcha fix, you need caffeine but you're not a coffee person. It's also really great place for a semi-late night (I believe they close at 10? so it's not like super late or anything, but still open until a pretty decent time) dessert and catch up with friends! Overall, a really great place and if love Matcha, you should really check this place out!

It was perfectly seasoned and not too salty like I've had elsewhere. As creamy as it was, it wasn't heavy. Ube cheesecake: This was delicious! Great ube flavor! The ube cheesecake was very smooth and creamy. There's a layer of ube cake on top of the cheesecake. So good! Butterfly latte: I paid extra for oat milk. What is butterfly anyway? It was pretty complex. It tasted like cotton candy and was slightly minty. I liked it. Yuzu omija: I think this was like a lemonade, or yuzumade. It was refreshing and also not overly sweet.

Strawberry Mille-Feuille: They make this fresh, so I had to wait about 5-10 minutes, but it was absolutely worth it.

I even found myself licking the paper it came on and didn't care who saw me because it was that good. Mushroom Crêpe: Yes, it's worth the hype.

The tiny mushrooms were adorable, and it comes served in a cute crêpe holder. Coconut Cake: The cake was incredibly soft and fluffy with custard cream layered in between. They didn't have individual slices, so I ordered the mini cake for $17. Yes, I ate the entire thing. Yes, it was delicious. Yes, I think I've had enough coconut cake now in one sitting to last a lifetime. Yuzu Panna Cotta: Very unique. I haven't seen this dessert anywhere else. The yuzu adds a bright tangy flavor that almost makes the panna cotta taste like a creamy citrus yogurt. I'm really glad I tried it. Matcha Latte: Strong, high-quality matcha. Sometimes matcha drinks at cafés taste watered down, but not here. It's topped with matcha foam and little matcha brownie bits, which makes it extra special. Strawberry Dessert: My kids loved this. Every bite was a surprise. My 9-year-old found beans in one bite and then a big strawberry hidden in the middle. It was fun watching them discover it. Parking is easy and straightforward, and the café itself is absolutely adorable. If you have time, sit down and enjoy the experience.
